First time staying at RBI for our company retreat. Top-notch event and catering services! Delicious food and desserts.The property was beautiful and well kept. What a hidden gem! Kudos to Charmaine, our event sales manager, Patty, our banquet captain, and their team for putting our event together so beautifully and professionally. They were very attentive and making sure that everything ran smoothly throughout our event. Our whole team had a wonderful time here and can’t wait to be back next year!
Perfection!

I am a San Diego local and went for a staycation with my partner. The property is beautiful and the food amazing! I had breakfast, lunch and dinner, tried both restaurant and food are really good (try the scallops entree at Avanti, you won't regret), the service at Avanti is outstanding (Josh is awesome and we will be back). The overall team service is also really good, and I forgot an item at the hotel that upset me a lot, but few days later the team reached out to me, the found it! Made me so happy! Tip: If you are on a romantic getaway, avoid rooms by the family pool, is vacay time for the kiddo and they have activities and can be noisy. There is space for everyone, quitter rooms and adults pool only!
A lovely stay at RB Inn

A wonderful stay at RB Inn with top notch employees. Michael in reservations was on top of making sure our bill was correct after some confusion on our room rate. Lewis knew our names and what we liked to drink and order after the first day for breakfast. The staff at the entrance of the inn were always friendly and helpful. It is definitely a beautiful resort that the staff makes it a pleasure to stay there.
Had dinner at the Veranda last night. Waiter Andy and the Mgn Evan were awesome. Atmosphere and food were exceptional

Last night my friend and I had a lovely dinner at the Veranda restaurant. The weather was perfect as we watched the sun go down over the golf course. We enjoyed drinks and a delicious dinner. I ordered the grilled salmon with corn. He ordered the tenderloin with potatoes. For desert, we had yummy cheese cake. So good!! Service was perfect and so was the food. Pretty pricy but we enjoyed ourselves. Our waiter Andy did a wonderful job. We also liked how the beverage manager Evan made sure everyone was enjoying their dinner and atmosphere. Memorable evening.
